State whether the following is true or false.
Two cements with the same Blaine fineness necessarily perform identically.

  • A.False only at small scales
  • B.True
  • C.False
  • D.True only at large scales

Answer: C

Correct answer: False

Blaine reports a single number for the whole distribution, and two cements can reach it in quite different ways - one with a narrow spread of particle sizes, another with a mixture of very fine and quite coarse. Their strength development, water demand and workability will differ, which is why the full particle size distribution is examined where performance matters.
